First person Russian pilot ejection video!

If you pause the video in a few places you can see the plane with flames coming out of the engine and part of the tail is missing.. !

It was a missile, you can see the smoke trail early in the vid. It is very brief.

He was flying pretty low…good thing the seat shot him up high enough for the chute to fully deploy.

In that case, I'm sure Ukraine treats POW's nicely.

I'm sure he's glad he's not a Russian tanker. At least he gets to eject instead of get BBQ'd.

I'm thinking the pilot wanted to film his escape from Russia. That's the only reason he would be wearing a camera. He probably qualifies for a Martin Baker Bremont, not sure if Bremont would ship there.

That sounds plausible.. “ hey guys, I’m defecting … Shoot me down, but hit my plane with a missile ‘just right’ where I can survive by ejection! …
